EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent small sword from the 18th century, crafted by the French School. Measuring an impressive 90.7 cm, this steel weapon is adorned with intricate copper alloy inlays and features a combination of wood and steel wire elements. The craftsmanship of this small sword is truly remarkable, as every detail has been meticulously executed. The ornate metalwork on the handle and guard adds to its allure, while figures depicted on the hilt bring life to its design. The handguard displays exquisite horse motifs that further enhance its beauty. The blade itself boasts a crossguard and grip that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Its decorated pommel adds an extra touch of elegance to this already decorative piece. Housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, this small sword was generously gifted by Mr. and Mrs. John L. Severance. As it belongs to the French School and dates back centuries ago, it falls under public domain or out-of-copyright status. This print captures not only the artistry behind this historic weapon but also serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history. It stands as a reminder of our fascination with weaponry as both practical tools for defense and objects of artistic expression.
